Organising Writing into Paragraphs means practising the idea at the table with a short text or prompt and one clear check. We will demo once, then your child tries.
Materials: Paper and pencil; A short prompt or mentor sentence. 1. Say the goal of Organising Writing into Paragraphs in plain words once. 2. Adult plans one idea aloud, then writes one model sentence or short opener. 3. Child plans and writes three short sentences or one short paragraph with a clear job. 4. Fresh check: one fresh sentence that matches the job. Record and stop. Done: three sentences (or one short paragraph) that match the prompt. Proof: parent note of examples and results. Stop: End after the fresh check; keep optional challenge for another day.

Check understanding
- Divide a piece of writing into paragraphs, each focused on one main idea or aspect of the topic
- Use headings and sub-headings to organise a non-fiction text (e.g., a report about animals with sections 'Habitat', 'Diet', 'Appearance')
- Identify where a new paragraph should begin in a given text and explain why (e.g., 'A new paragraph starts here because the topic changes from appearance to diet')
“When your child writes a longer piece — like a report or a story — do they organise it into paragraphs, with related ideas grouped together and, where appropriate, headings to help the reader navigate?”
